Here il is said "through these promises," which only means llint 11 man believe* in Christ. A promise Ih nothing except for the value of the person who makes it. Some men may make their promises, and no man given them heed. I'.ut it' one promises whose character you know, then you count on tb< m as you count upon the shining of j the sun.

Kducation Is drawing ; out, but how can vou draw holiness j from a heart that is "deceitful above all things and desperately wicked?" Kducation can never do the work. It is like putting a new handle on the pump and leaving the dog in the well. Yon may wonder at the fancy <>f bringing in a new and supernatural life by belief in precious promises, I'.ut all questions are answered by the experiences of history, (ircat men have been regenerated by single words of Scripture.

If one of those phantom friends of the astronomers should come to this earth and say to me "1 understand this is a beautiful place, but for one tiling. I understand It Is tilled with sin and rebellion against the rule of <Jod." I wish I could say to him. "My friend, you have been misinformed. There is no sin." I'.ut I tell you frankly. I could not Kay that to him. I would have to say to him: "Alas' 'tis true, 'tis pity, and pity 'tis, 'tis true." Hut I could also sa \ to him that sin cannot hold us in its cruel grasp. 1 would point him yonder, and say. "Do you see that gol den splendor? That is the gospel of Jesus.

At. this time, also, cancers nnd tumors are more liable to form and begin their destructive work. Such warning symp toms as sense of suffo cation, hot flashes, head aches backaches, dread of impending evil, timid ity, sounds in the cars, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipa tion, variable appetite, weakness nnd inquie tude, and dizziness, arc promptly heeded by in telligent women who, are approaching the period ifl life when woman's great change, may bo expected. 1'hese symptoms are all just so many calls from nature for help.
